After I put my hair up, I grabbed my house keys and headed down the stairs. Alex, my oldest brother, saw me heading to the door.
"Where are you going?" He asked.
I turned to him before I got to the door.
"Out." I said.
"Out? Out where?"
"Just out. Gonna check up on Kelly."
"Oh okay. Have fun at the audition."
I smirked. "I will, no worries."
Then I headed out. Alex must have known about the audition. Either that, or Brandon and Sean told him about it. Those two are such squealers. Wouldn't surprise me much, though. I headed through the park, because the studio was on the other side and I didn't want to take the long way.
Halfway Through The Park
I was looking around and saw something shine. I raised my eyebrow and went over to it. I kneeled down and saw a pair of sunglasses.
"These look like Michael Jackson's...where could he be?" I asked myself.
Little did I know, he was up in the tree. I carefully put them in my bag and continued walking toward the studio.
After The Auditions
(Me: Sorry! Feeling lazy lol) I paced around the lounge, a little nervous about if I got the part or not. They had said, before the auditions, that they would let Kelly decide. I talked with the other girls in the lounge and all of them were confident and knew they'd get the part. It just made me more nervous. Soon, I saw Kelly come out. We lined up and she closed her eyes and held her finger up. I closed my eyes as well, feeling very nervous. Soon, I heard gasps coming from the other girls. I opened my eyes and saw Kelly smiling and pointing at me. I gasped myself.
'Oh my gosh...I got the part.' I thought.
Kelly came up to me and hugged me. I hugged her back. I guess it was because we already shared a sister bond that I had gotten the part. Then the director came out and came up to me.
"Congrats, Ms. Rebecca. You have gotten the part of Kelly's big sister for Smooth Criminal. Now, we start rehearsals tomorrow at 10:30 am. Alright?" He asked.
I nodded. "Yes, I got it." I told him.
He gave me a schedule of the rehearsal days and times and soon enough, I was on my way home, all excited.
Going Through The Park
I stopped and took out the sunglasses.
"I should really find out who these belong to..." I told myself. So I shouted out. "Hello? Did anyone lose a pair of sunglasses?"
No response came. I tried 6 more times, but I got the same result. I sighed, put them back in my bag and started again for home.
After Getting Home
I unlocked the door and got inside. Alex came up to me.
"Well? How did it go?" He asked.
He's always encouraged me to do my best. He's technically the only brother that will make sure I'm happy. I looked at him and smiled and showed him the schedule.
"I got the part!" I said.
Alex and I cheered and he got out two Pepsis and gave one to me. It's technically my only sweet drink treat I get for either doing something good or getting a role for a play or short film. I then headed up to my room, pinned my schedule on the wall, set my alarm and soon went to sleep, thinking happy thoughts.
"Where are you going?" He asked.
I turned to him before I got to the door.
"Out." I said.
"Out? Out where?"
"Just out. Gonna check up on Kelly."

With the two-year anniversary of Michael Jackson's death approaching -- one helicopter company is giving fans the chance to pay their respects ... by raining flowers down around Neverland ... mid-flight.
The 30-minute Channel Island Helicopter flights are set to take off June 24th and 25th -- exactly two years since Jackson died after a Propofol-induced cardiac arrest.
During the flight, passengers are encouraged to honor the late entertainer by chucking his favorite flower -- a red rose -- out of the helicopter mid-flight ... over nearby Zaca Peak.
A rep for the helicopter company tell us -- fans are super excited for the aerial tour ... saying they feel it will bring them "closer to heaven" ... and closer to Michael.

Ryan White, symbol of justice
Or child of innocence, messenger of love
Where are you now, where have you gone?
Ryan White, I miss your sunny days
We carelessly frolicked in extended plays
I miss you, Ryan White
I miss your smile, innocent and bright
I miss your glory, I miss your light
Ryan White, symbol of contradiction
Child of Irony, or child of fiction?
I think of your shattered life
Of your struggle, of your strife
While ladies dance in the moonlit night
Champage parties on charted cruises
I see your wasted form, your ghostly sight
I feel your festering wounds, your battered bruises
Ryan White, symbol of agony and pain
Of ignorant fear gone insane
In a hysterical society
With free-floating anxiety
And feigned piety
I miss you, Ryan White
You showed us how to stand and fight
In the rain you were the cloudburst joy
The sparkle of hope in every girl and boy
In the depths of your anguished sorrow
Was the dream of another tomorrow
